road to victory

Chapter 7 On the Train and in the Bar

Fan Shang was sitting on the train, and suddenly wanted to know today's score, but there is no mobile phone these days, what should I do?Fan Shang thought for a while, got up and went to look for the flight attendant.

"Hi sir, can I help you?"

"Hello, I want to ask, can I hear the radio on this train?" Fan Shang asked

"Yes if you have a radio" the flight attendant replied

"I don't have it, I want to ask if you have it here?"

"Sorry, neither do we, but you can ask other passengers if they have one. If you want to listen to the radio, please try not to be in the compartment, so as not to affect other passengers"

"Thank you." Fan Shang nodded and returned to the carriage

After asking again, there was no radio, so Fan Shang had no choice but to give up.When Fan Shang was looking out of the window boredly, a figure came beside him.Fan Shang didn't care, and continued to look at the scenery outside the window, when he heard a voice beside his ear.

"Excuse me, excuse me, are you Chinese?"

"Then can you borrow it from me now?"

On the train, Fan Shang chatted with Zhao Ya all the way, and Fan Shang joked a few words from time to time, which made Zhao Ya laugh so much that the surrounding passengers gathered on the two of them.

"See you Monday, good night"

"Thank you." Fan Shang took the radio and got up and walked to the junction of the carriages, Zhao Ya followed.

“A beer, thanks”

"You should come to me on Monday first, let's go see the manager and let him take you to the U19 side." Francois thought for a while

"Yes, it is direct and non-stop, which means that the next stop is Paris. What are you going to do in Paris?"

I heard the voice of passion from inside, "Keller, Keller passed the opponent's defender. He took the ball into the penalty area and shot! Strasbourg leads Bordeaux 3:0, now it is the No. 3 minute of the game, and there are 0 minutes of extra time, Strasbourg has actually achieved three points in this game."

"The secret must not be leaked," Fan Shang pretended to be profound, put the radio in Zhao Ya's hand, and went back to his seat.Zhao Ya who didn't know why was left behind.

Fan Shang watched Zhao Ya walking into the subway station with her bag on her back, and turned around to go back to the Bordeaux train.Sitting on the train, Fan Shang felt in a good mood, because *** lost the game, and because he was able to chat with beautiful women.

Francois was silent for a while, "It's not a big deal, **** is just the head coach of the first team, and can't manage the lower echelons, so you can go directly to the U19 side on Monday, don't go to the first team training ground , so as not to trouble you again."

Fan Shang turned his head and saw that the person who was talking was the person sitting next to him just now. You girl, you should be a Chinese girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slender figure and long black hair. Glasses, kind of cute, just looking at Fan Shang like this.Two words "Xueba" came to Fan Shang's mind, this is still a beautiful Xueba!

"Mr. Theo? Okay, I understand." Fan Shang felt that it was necessary to meet the manager, at least to let him have an impression of himself and know who Fan Shang is.

The first thing Fan Shang did when he got home was to call Francois. On the phone, Fan Shang told Francois what happened in the locker room today.

The girl rummaged through her backpack a few times and took out a radio, "Here, this is for me to listen to the French radio."

"My name is Zhao Ya, what do you do? You only asked me just now, now it's time for me to ask you." The girl asked Fan Shang after saying her name.

"Hi sir, what do you want?" the bartender asked politely

The train soon arrived in Paris, and Fan Shang and Zhao Ya were about to separate. Since Zhao Ya had just arrived in Paris and did not know the phone number of the dormitory, Fan Shang left her his phone number for the convenience of the two.

Hearing this, Fan Shang turned off the radio and clenched his fists.

"Oh, are you from China or born here?" Fan Shang asked again

"Yes, what's the matter with you?" Fan Shang looked at her for a long time before realizing that he should answer her
"Great, I don't need to speak French anymore. I want to ask, is this car going directly to Paris?" The girl was very happy

"Are you a Strasbourg fan? Don't you live in Bordeaux?" Zhao Ya looked at Fan Shang suspiciously
"Of course I'm not a Strasbourg fan. I'm the coach of Bordeaux. Bordeaux lost this game, hehe." Vincent denied it first, then smiled wretchedly.

"Is your name missing a word Zhi? I'm a football coach, I live in Bordeaux, I'm French and Chinese." Vincent teased her

The waiter poured a glass of beer and put it in front of Fan Shang, "Sir, your beer"

"Okay, let's listen together." Fan Shang turned on the radio and found the station for the competition.

"By the way, you are moving. Do you have a radio?" Fan Shang suddenly remembered the game.

There are many bars near the Victory Square in Bordeaux. Vincent found a bar with the Bordeaux team flag and sat in it.

"Okay, I know."

"You are so strange, I hope my team loses." Zhao Ya didn't understand Fan Shang.

"Okay, see you on Monday, good night"

"Have"

Fan Shang hung up the phone, feeling a little agitated. Although he was said to be the head coach of U19, he was also a head coach after all.It's up to me who gets on and who doesn't, and it feels so cool!Therefore, Fan Shang decided to go out for a drink and celebrate for himself.

The girl didn't care when she arrived, "I graduated from a high school in China, and my aunt has a restaurant here, so I went to Strasbourg first. I was recently admitted to the Economics Department of Paris Dauphina University." talking proudly
"You are great, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Fan Shang" Fan Shang introduced himself

"I'm going to school, I'm going to college" The girl may be afraid that Fan Shang will feel that she is young, so she especially emphasizes going to college

"Are you afraid that I will take your radio away?" Fan Shang said when he saw that Zhao Ya was following him.
Zhao Ya curled her lips, "Am I that kind of person? I just want to hear what you heard. I'm curious, okay?"

"Thank you" Fan Shang thanked him, took a sip from his glass, looked up and saw the game between Strasbourg and Bordeaux was playing on the TV in the bar, the score was still 0:0.At this time, Strasbourg got a chance to set the ball in the front court. The ball was sent into the penalty area. The Bordeaux defenders gathered in the middle and missed Leboeuf who was in the back.The future France World Cup winner didn't miss a chance, heading in Strasbourg's first goal.

"Hey" came a sigh from the side, "Defense is not enough if you have a lot of people." This is a middle-aged white man in his 40s, with a slightly fat body, shaking his head while talking.

"Then how do you think we should defend?" Fan Shang asked tentatively.

"Just talking about the defense of the free kick, look at the defender's position, it is to prepare for the zone defense. After the ball is delivered, the defensive players all move towards the ball's landing point. They did not protect it. It is obvious that they did not pay attention to the defensive tactical drill. The cooperation is not tacit, and the coach's positioning of the two central defenders and the two defensive midfielders is not clear enough in defense, and the distance is obviously too close." The middle-aged man Taotao kept talking.
